To start things off the water tastes horrible. There was a special event and they were packed so service was horribly slow, we never even got refills of our drinks. Our appetizer to share was two empanadas (#1 spinach and chicken and #2 ropa) they were both delightful - flavorful, flaky while also being crispy.

Regretfully our entrees were disappointing. Bistec de pallomilla was horrible! Tough cut of beef with unappetizing color and equally unappetizing flavor. Supposed to be served with white rice and black beans but the black beans were absent. The fried plantains were perfect.

Second entree was un poquito de todo. The ropa and yucca were surprisingly good, served next to tasteless, Luke warm and greasy lechon asado, and COLD picadillo that looked really good but was missing something.
